Problem with Domain Name
-
I created a free site ‘tulipenotes.wordpress.com’ but I had to delete it because I couldn’t change the theme. So I created a new site, but my mistake, I created ‘tulipenotesblog.wordpress.com.’ I looked up ‘tulipenotes.wordpress.com’ and it says that the owner deleted the account. I want to create a new site with the URL ‘tulipenotes.wordpress.com’ and I will transfer my blogposts from ‘tulipenotesblog.wordpress.com’ to the new site. Please help. Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @tweepo,
Sorry… but once you change your site/blog address you cannot revert back to your old address. The old address is reserved and cannot be used by anyone(not even you). This is done, to prevent impersonation of your blog by someone else.Read more about changing blog addresses/URL/domains here:

Thanks for getting back. Is there any way I can make a special request to get the the previous URL recycled? I had it for a mere 5 mins before I deleted it because wordpress.com was having technical issues and I couldn’t change the blog’s theme. I’m sure this can be looked up, too. The URL was unique and had I known this, I wouldn’t have deleted the site. Please help! The only reason I joined WordPress yesterday was to use this title on a blog. I’ve been planning for years. Could really use any help. Thanks.

I think I added the tag just now. Any idea when I might expect to hear from someone?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi there,
I’ve sent an email to the address on your WordPress.com account to find out why you were having problems changing themes. I’ll follow up with you there.
Thanks!
